Is the friends mother a mahram?

Q: Recently I underwent many tough circumstances. At one point I lost the will to face the world, but Allah Ta'ala made my friends mother a way to my easiness. She gave me correct guidance and is giving me knowledge of Islam. I just wanted to know if she is a mahram or a na mahram to me?

A: She is a na-mahram to you.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
